My body hasn't been treating me well lately, and I'm clumsy:
- On Monday morning, I woke up and began stepping down the ladder from my lofted bed. But my left knee wouldn't work (as in it just kept giving out every time I tried to put weight on it). So it ended up being more of a "jump/slide" down the ladder, to the floor where I sat on my knees. I tried once again to get up, but my left knee still wouldn't "lock", so I ended up crawling around on my floor for about 5 - 10 minutes or so before I finally felt stable enough to stand up, and even then I took steps cautiously. Weird (and, in a way, very funny).
- Today, I kind of "jumped" to get to the first step on the mini-staircase outside the south caf, when I kind of slipped and lodged my elbow/arm in between the railing and the wall. My elbow is sure to be bruised, and I got to be embarassed when I realized that 3 of my residents saw it happen.
Ha ha...it reminds me of this time when I was in Mexico after my freshman year in high school, and I was running to catch up with people and tripped on this wire/pipe thingy, landing flat on my face. I think I laid there for like 2 minutes before I'd realized what had happened, and I was mortified (and at the same time, laughing). I finally knew what it meant to land flat on my face.
what are some of *your* clumsy/hilarious stories?

Well, there is the ever famous, most repeated story of me falling down the stairs at my high school homecoming my sophomore year. *tumble, tumble, boom, SPLAT*. We all have our moments. :o)
Well, you see, there was this incident a little while ago... I had a bunch of people over in my room and I was standing in between two of them, talking to them about something. One of them tried to rump me, so I turned around the other way, and then the other person DID rump me, so I turned around again (trying to sit down to avoid further rumping). As I was sitting, the first person kicked me really hard in the butt. I just rolled over in pain. I think you might've been there for that one, Cat...
